Mumbai to Singapore Flights

What's new in Mumbai

• June 2025: The final 76 km of the Samruddhi Mahamarg between Igatpuri and Amane near Thane opened on 5 June 2025, completing the 701 km expressway to Nagpur and bypassing the Kasara Ghat.
• October 2025: The Aqua Line (Metro Line 3) opened its last section to Cuffe Parade to passengers on 9 October 2025. The fully underground line now runs from Aarey through both airport terminals, Bandra Kurla Complex, Worli and Churchgate to the southern tip of the city.
• December 2025: Navi Mumbai International Airport began commercial flights on 25 December 2025, with IndiGo, Akasa Air, Air India Express and Star Air among the first airlines. For travellers bound for Navi Mumbai, Panvel or the Pune road it can be closer than the Santacruz airport.

Tips for travellers

Colaba and Fort put you within walking distance of the Gateway of India, the Kala Ghoda galleries and the Oval Maidan; Bandra and Andheri are more practical when a trip is built around suburban meetings or an early flight. Suburban trains on the Western, Central and Harbour lines carry most commuters, and the UTS on Mobile app from Indian Railways sells local tickets without a queue. Avoid boarding with luggage during the morning and evening rush.

The south-west monsoon usually reaches Mumbai in June and brings heavy rain until September, which can flood low-lying roads and slow the local trains. Ganesh Chaturthi, in August or September, draws large crowds to Lalbaug and the sea front for ten days. The Elephanta Caves are closed on Mondays. Dress conservatively at Siddhivinayak Temple and at Haji Ali Dargah, and carry a scarf to cover your head at the dargah.

Tips for travellers from India

Serangoon Road is a useful short-stay base for Serangoon Road restaurants and the Downtown and North East MRT lines. City Hall works better for the National Gallery and riverfront, while Marina Bay puts the waterfront close by but separates it from the small shops around Tekka Centre. Decide which cluster matters before choosing a hotel; a place near an MRT entrance can be more useful than a central-looking map pin across a large road junction.

Changi’s MRT station serves Terminals 2 and 3. The airport branch requires a change at Tanah Merah for the East West Line towards town, while Expo provides an interchange with the Downtown Line. This distinction matters for hotels near Bugis or Serangoon Road. Jewel is on the public side of the airport, so a visit during a connection requires the appropriate entry permission and a return through departure formalities. Gardens by the Bay’s outdoor grounds and its ticketed conservatories need different amounts of time; a walk through the gardens does not include admission to every attraction. Keep Sentosa as a separate outing from the civic district, and group the National Gallery beside the Padang, Singapore River and nearby bridges into a day with fewer transfers.
